well been cracking on with car got the sunroof tray sorted out
used an old baking dish that was the right depth to fix the holes, so no more leaking into the car
this means that the intrior can be put back into the car
ive also got hold of an mtec2 wheel and some sports seats for the sum of £0
a mates car was being crushed as it was a cat.B right off (his now getting an e36 compact with an s50 in it ) so i got them for nothing
now for the bad news
im being evicted in less than a week so the cars going on hold again for a while
ill post some pics when ive taken some
